before opting for Nigeria at full
Moses and Hoilett are no better than what we have. I mean where was Moses for two thirds of the season?
Got to be honest, if Carroll plays for England then I will be supporting the other team. A player who has had half a season of 'good' football gets in ahead of Holt who has been consistent all season.
Or Crouch with his proven goal scoring record.
Or even Defoe who has done a great job the last couple of times he has played for England.
Playing Carroll is admitting defeat.

The worst stats of all English strikers in the country and people are seriously considering him for England.

I know stats aren't everything to go by with an argument, but that is astonishing! I will hate it if he goes to the Euros. Highlights everything wrong with the philosophy of English football and hasn't even played as well as he can this season!
If he was Spanish, he wouldn't even be a footballer.
It is only when you look at the England strikers that you realise that England are absolute rubbish, and have no chance, it`s the same with the defence and midfield.
Geriatric players and our supposed best player Rooney has played 5 tournaments now, and been pretty poor in all of them, bar his first, when he was carried off, injured.
Harry dodged a bullet when he was overlooked by England.

"only when you look at the England strikers ... it`s the same with the defence and midfield."
I agree with the bit in between. This time around, we have no chance whatsoever. Our national team is in transition (well, should be - I expect the old guard to all go to the Euros even though they should be ousted). The Euros should be used as a team building tournament.

I disagree.
The Euros is England´s best chance of winning an international tournament as England have no chance of winning another World Cup.
If Denmark and Greece can win a Euro then so can England
You lot are going to be mightily upset when Carroll (deservedly) makes the squad

True, but our squad is in pieces at the moment. Nobody has a clue who will go to the Euros, who will play or how we will set up. To have a chance we need to be incredibly organised (Hodgson is great at this), and against the best teams we may have to play defensively.

Based on about 3 good games all season? He simply isn't good enough in my eyes I'm afraid.

I think you have to pick players in form, not favorites and carroll is coming into form

Not knowing whos going could be a good thing because that means no one will expect to go and when they do get picked they'll feel honoured and make sure they stay there

120 minutes of decent play and he's in form Chris Brunt has also played well in his past couple of games - should he go?

I wouldn't if I were you. Seeing Carroll as a good footballer would be too much of a trip.
Rooney, Welbeck, Sturridge, Carroll.
Defoe, Crouch and Bent are players who should be no where near this squad.
Crouch > Carroll
